Continuing to show their undying fealty to the altar of Dr. Tony Fauci, the White House press corps refused to ask Press Secretary Jen Psaki a single question during Wednesday’s briefing about the bombshell trove of emails from the NIH official from the early moments of the pandemic. It was on the mind of at least one reporter in the room as our friend Amber Athey of The Spectator had…

A recent survey conducted by the leftist Public Religion Research Institute associated the COVID-19 laboratory leak hypothesis with QAnon conspiracy theories. 

The Memorial Day edition of the New York Times editorial page led with an obnoxious, elitist essay by Margaret Renkl, a contributing opinion writer based in Nashville. Her attempt at a Memorial Day tribute was rendered worthless by an extraneous condemnation of her fellow Americans for not doing enough to stop the coronavirus, hidden under the benign title “A New Vision of National…

ABC News’ Chief Washington Correspondent Jonathan Karl gave the most mockable admission on this front, while on ABC’s political roundtable, This Week, yesterday. Karl struggled to admit Trump could actually be right about the lab leak theory, even as he justified the media mocking him for it a year ago.

In a line that was one where you had to rewind the show a few times to make sure it was real, MSNBC regular and Princeton professor Eddie Glaude Jr. appeared on Monday's Morning Joe and, in trying to explain Americans' relatively positive mood nowadays, got off this laugh line: "We cannot underestimate the importance of competence...Competence is actually at the helm."

Chris Cillizza mocked Trump for being "crushed" by Dr. Anthony Fauci over the Wuhan lab leak theory yet now has to explain why Fauci is now "hedging" due to the increasing likelihood that Trump was right.

Andrea Mitchell Reports guest host Peter Alexander was forced to acknowledge on Friday that maybe Trump Administration officials were correct, or at the very least, not conspiracy theorists, in declaring COVID-19 to be the result of a lab leak. Still, Alexander wondered if the former administration was looking for a scapegoat, a notion former Pence staffer-turned MSM hero Olivia Troye…

Alleged Facebook insider Morgan Kahmann went public in an interview with Project Veritas to reportedly expose Facebook’s system to crack down on COVID vaccine criticism.

Pardon the whiplash! It feels like the media suddenly decided the theory that the deadly coronavirus leaked from a lab in Wuhan is now considered plausible when it was aggressively dismissed by the press as a “fringe theory” in 2020.

Senator Kirsten Gillibrand was guest on the show Thursday, where she was shamed by hosts Sunny Hostin and Sara Haines for not being partisan enough, despite ranking as the third most liberal Senator in Congress.

For an Associated Press "reporter" who moonlights as an MSNBC "analyst," Jonathan Lemire is turning out to be as rabidly anti-Republican as anyone in the liberal media. Last week, we caught Lemire, in regard to a possible January 6th commission, accusing Mitch McConnell of "yet another cynical political play." Today, Lemire's goal was to deprive President Trump of credit for his early call in…

As the “lab leak” theory regarding the origins of the Wuhan coronavirus gains credibility among scientists and in the press after being previously demonized, some aren't ready to let go. The New York Times’ leading COVID-19 beat reporter, Apoorva Mandavilli, showed Wednesday morning that she’s unfit for her job with a tweet suggesting that even investigating the possibility the Wuhan…

The networks on Thursday offered a grudging concession to the idea that Covid may have emerged from a Chinese lab, calling it a “a vindication of sorts for Trump-era officials” despite the former President “trying to pin it on China.”

As NewsBusters documented last night, CNN Prime Time host Chris “Fredo” Cuomo has been trying to play dumb with COVID by suggesting GOP focus on the Wuhan Institute of Virology last year was racist. And he was at it again Wednesday night, claiming theories about the lab were “a newer notion,” and that “the government had not been open to the lab theory.” But inconveniently for Fredo,…
